The track list for “The Hunger Games,” the big-budget Hollywood pictured partially filmed last year in Western North Carolina, has been released and it looks darn good.

The line-up includes songs by The Carolina Chocolate Drops, The Punch Brothers, Arcade Fire, Neko Case and plenty more. There are some tracks by starts like Taylor Swift and Miranda Lambert, artists I don’t particularly care for as much as the aforementioned, but all-in-all, the music looks great.
